This week has gone by so fast. I can't believe that half of the year is over. I am excited that I have a long weekend--thanks to the July 4th holiday. I will use this weekend to see as many movies as possible especially, "Transformers". I cannot believe that I have not seen "Bridesmaids". Has anyone seen it? What are your thoughts?

I bet you are wondering were these pictures were taken. I took it few weeks ago during my vacation in Dominican Republic.

I have always had a fascination for wide-leg pants. When I was 14 years old, my friend and I were crazy about wide-leg pants. We usually dressed up in wide-leg pants and crop tops while choreographing our favorite songs like "There You Go" by Pink and "Wannabe" by Spice girls--great memories!

Fast forward to 2011, I am still in love with wide-leg pants, bell-bottoms, and now, I just can't get enough of these palazzo pants. I love the color and silhouette--great for spring/summer weather.

This week went by so fast. I really don't have any big plans this weekend besides hanging out with friends. Right now, I am multitasking - catching up on "The Real Housewives" and "90210," while going through inspirational boards and eating fried plantains :)

Singing: It's Friday, Friday -- Gonna get down on Friday! LOL! I love Fridays. For me, today signifies more time for me plus more sleep.
My friend Bisi and I were a bit jobless so we decided to go window shopping at Pier 1 Imports. We both love interior decorating so much that we sometimes go to model homes around my house and observe the way they decorate the interiors. Personally, I am obsessed with art decors, paintings and Moroccan themed items.

I had no idea Pier 1 Imports sell masks. After trying on a few, I felt like buying them for a mask/costume party that I will love to have. I admired the masks and afterwards, we grabbed some smoothies at Panera bread.

I want to thanks all my followers and readers. I reached 1000 followers on Thursday. Again, thanks a lot. You guys are the best and I appreciate all your support. I am working on a giveaway -- coming soon.

I am back from vacation and will continue to share outfits I wore in The Dominican Republic.

This outfit is from another day at Punta Cana. I wore the striped skirt in the evening to a dinner date with my hubby at one of the resort's restaurant called Kyoto. I love Japanese food and I visited this restaurant two nights in a row. I love their fried ice-cream. Has anyone tried fried ice-cream?
I love stripes and when it comes to wearing stripes, horizontal stripes give a wider/bigger appearance , while vertical stripes give a leaner look. Therefore, we should be aware of what type of stripes to wear.

Envelope Clutches are making rounds from street styles to bloggers' tastes. I love the structure and shape of these clutches. It has a masculine appeal, edgy, but yet chic. I am definitely loving it!

What are your thoughts on Envelope Clutches? Will you be carrying one?

Clutches: All are from Asos.com, Pink Clutch: BCBGeneration

On another note, BIG thanks for all the wishes in my previous post. My husband was really surprised. He had no clue about the destination. Punta Cana is really beautiful. I will definitely recommend this to anyone. I can't wait to share lots of pictures and videos. I am about to head for some ATV fun ride.

Since the destination of my trip was a surprise, I could not post this post earlier because my husband could read it and the whole surprise will be over.

When it comes to packing for trips, I really suck in that department because I always over pack. Then again, my philosophy is that it is better to take more than less--learnt from experience. These are some of the things I packed for my trip.

Update...My destination is Punta Cana, Dominican Republic :) It was so hard keeping the destination a surprise for months. Anyway, happy birthday in advance to my hubby whose birthday is on Sunday!

QUICK BREAKFAST:
I was in New York the other day for fun and went shopping with my friend and blogger Adaku of ThirdWorldProfashional. It was nice catching up, having "girl talks", and walking around Manhattan. The funny part of the day was when we came across a photographer/paparazzi/stalker in Times Square who kept taking our pictures and did not give us a reason why he was taking the pictures or where they will be posted. Oh...did I mention that he seemed to be in love with my friend--- hilarious, I must say!

My weekend was definitely fun. Now, I am looking forward to my trip this week. Like I mentioned in previous post, I have planned a surprise for my hubby whose birthday is on Sunday. He knows of a travel plan but has NO idea where we are going. My only hint is...it is part of the Great Antilles. :)
